On the Design:

A light and luscious play of mauve border and light pink field underscores this piece’s marriage of florals and geometric patterns, with a notable emphasis of diamond medallions in the central field—a reimagining of tribal lozenges among the subtle nod to many primitivist motifs this rug enjoys. Admirers of the craft will further appreciate the unique revival of this technique in an all-wool construction and intricate new texture—a more durable way to recreate these old-world textile designs for use on the floor while still capturing their fabulous, elegant look in the most honorable fashion. Altogether it’s a piece as deeply personal in its subtext as it is in the details and beauties that distinguish it in our craft—a warm and welcoming new choice for the floor and wall-hanging projects alike in its craft and sensibility.
